Selle Italia Turbo: thoughts

Giant Phil

Hello again

Cycling through france in a couple of weeks so am on the look out for something abit kinder on my backside than the Toupe is currently offering. Popped to the LBS and had a chat with one of the guys who I know to be pretty handy at anything bike, and he told me that the Turbo saddles are particularly good and relatively cheap, he even said they use them on the Protour circuit.

Any opinions or knowledge on them and their performance would be fantastic

Thankyou, Phil

I used to use the Selle Italia Flite saddles exclusively on all my bikes and found them incredibly comfortable and still do however I have recently started using a Prologo Kappa on my main road bike and i find it a bit more comfy than the Flite as it seems to have a bit more padding.

I know its not a Turbo but its another couple of options. I have used Turbo's before, years ago, and they are good all round saddles if a bit heavy!!

Turbos or Rolls saddles are good, but heavy.
